Well I for one find Waffle House rather delightful.

I love that this thread is still alive. About waffles. :D The GF opted to make pancakes and eggs this morning.... Should I leave her?

Small necro here, I like how this thread turned into the breakfast thread.

I think I'll go by my local place, its the same place as the eggs and sausage picture earlier. Not sure what I want I'm looking for suggestions. I usually get scrambled eggs or a ham & cheese omelette so neither of them.

I'm thinking a Greek omelette or maybe something else suggestions?

**Their Greek omelette is pretty good my fiancee usually gets it. Spinach, olive and some feta in a rolled up kind of omelette.

Went out for breakfast the other day - 7oz steak, nice and tender, medium rare, trimmed of any fat or gristle. 2 eggs - scrambled - it was more like 4 eggs worth, huge pile of homefries - awesome. And blueberry pancakes made with fresh blueberries, topped with real maple syrup. One hell of a breakfast. The plate/platter was 16" wide, and was completely covered in deliciousness.

This morning I made bacon, egg and cheese on an English muffin. The egg was cooked in the bacon fat inside the ring of mason jar lid and the cheese was a horseradish cheddar. Now my cast iron pan glistens and is ready for tonight's jambalaya!

This morning. I've learned to lightly mix the batter and let it rest 5-10 minutes. The Death Star instructions of a 4-6 minute waffle are BS.
Overall I'm happy with this iron

Was on a trip to the mid-Atlantic last weekend, saw my first Waffle House, had to pull in for a try. All I can say is-the ambiance is interesting and the waffles weren't horrible.

OTOH I know of a half dozen diners nearby that make truly awesome breakfasts for very nearly the same price, sometimes even cheaper.

Between Waffle House and those truly horrible Krispy Creme donuts I've come to really question southern tastebuds.

It's my understanding that KrispyKreme overextended itself and quality suffered. Plausible, since publicly traded companies would whore out their mothers for a profitable quarter. I'm outside the native range, so can't comment, but the donuts I've had are mediocre at best. The popularity is a mystery to me, and I can only assume they used to be better.

This is why you hit up dunkin donuts when you can as they are so much better as the north knows how to do them right. :p

To me, doughnuts are a religious sacrament, a blessing from the Divine One. DD is Satan's blasphemy designed only to drive real bakeries out of business. I'm truly embarrassed that this scourge originated from my home region. But I still say Krispy Kreme is worse. One basic type of doughnut and it is so sweet it's like an instant case of diabetes.
